By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion. |
2
|
On the willows in the midst of it, We hung up our harps. |
3
|
For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs. Those who tormented us demanded songs of joy: "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!" |
4
|
How can we sing Yahweh\'s song in a foreign land? |
5
|
If I forget you, Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget its skill. |
6
|
Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don\'t remember you; If I don\'t prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy. |
7
|
Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom, The day of Jerusalem; Who said, "Raze it! Raze it even to its foundation!" |
8
|
Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, He will be happy who rewards you, As you have served us. |
9
|
Happy shall he be, Who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock. |
